Is there something wrong with sps. Is he not happy with the club. Is he homesick. Is he injured
 
Yes...great observation. I believe it to be the case of a quality player trapped playing down back in a midfielders body and mindset
I don't think SPS was setting the world alight as a midfielder, could be wrong but he usually got low possessions and played about 2 really really good games each year.

As a young developing mid in a shit midfield, that was acceptable(ish).

Ultimately though, to come into the seniors this week, refreshed after a game off, he should have been covering the ground and getting into positions for his teammates to use him.

He's played 77 senior games. I was absolutely staggered at his complete lack of presence. How do you get 5 touches playing off half back, as a player who is considered to be a very good ball user? His teammates should be looking for him, and he should be finding some space. Even cheap possies while we're switching the play.

I kinda hope there's something going on, because if there's not, then there's no excuse.

Think we need to play him on-ball for the remainder of the year if he's fit. Let him hunt the ball at stoppages. If he's still struggling to impact at that point, I'd be seriously considering using him as trade collateral. See if we can con Freo into a straight swap for Cerra.

No doubt SPS will be on the trade table and maybe the WA teams might nibble but he is probably not worth alot. Think this will be his last season as a Blue.

It’s obvious that we have killed Samo’s confidence playing him in the backline. His best games were round 1 and 2. Been downhill since. Needs a positional change and if I see him line up this week in the backline (if he doesn’t get dropped) I will throw up.

I am starting to wonder if he is getting homesick and tired of playing in back line when he grew up playing midfield. I am no expert of course, just what I've been thinking.

Why is it that high draft picks with huge upside come to Carlton and become mediocre is it our system our development or what
Stocker should be competing and growing game by game but no not at Carlton
I wonder if we drafted d Martin would he be the same a lost footballer due to our so called system it’s a joke let the players play to their strengths not curtail them as we do
And for god sake teach these guys how to kick a football in front of goal
